Samka Aslan
Licensed Therapist, MSW, LCSW
About
I am excited to join the fight against OCD. Putting in the work — attending therapy, challenging yourself, resisting compulsions, and practicing ERP (Exposure and Response Prevention) — during and in between sessions can be rewarding and life-changing. Treatment is tailored to your specific needs. Together, we'll develop a manageable plan of action. You will be an active participant in your therapy, and I'll help you challenge yourself. Fighting back against OCD together could help you reclaim your life. I also treat anxiety, depression, hoarding, and body-focused repetitive behaviors.

Samka has been understanding and encouraging in every session. I think she cares for my well-being, and she continues to help me through my exposures. She has also helped me become aware of other issues I may be dealing with that I would have never sought help for. Thank you, Samka, for being present, kind, and encouraging!

Samka is patient and does a great job directing the conversation so that the focus remains on the exposure therapy work. Samka is able to provide easy to understand terms related to OCD as many times as needed with no judgement.
